Dropping off your students (walkers only)
Thank
you for a great first week of school! As we transition to the second week
of the 2018-2019 school year, we ask all parents to drop off their students (walkers) at
door entrances #3 and #8. We will have staff members at each door, as well as
patrols to guide students to their classrooms and practice their independence when walking to their classrooms. As a reminder, all parents and visitors need to check in to
the Main Office if they are visiting Hunt Valley.
